Are you interested in helping us develop our tests?
Get involved and your students will be able to:
- practise using existing and new examination question types under exam conditions
- build up their confidence in advance of taking exams
- receive feedback so that they can improve their results for the real test
What test-trialling is
Test trialling (or pre-testing) is part of the test development process which allows Trinity to ensure that our examinations are high quality, reliable, and fair to all candidates around the world. Test trialling offers an excellent opportunity for teachers and prospective candidates to actively participate in the development process of both existing and new examinations and to offer their feedback.
- There are no fees for taking part in test trials
- There is no minimum number of students per centre
- Your students can take the test trials at your centre when ready
How it works
We invite volunteer candidates in schools and language centres to trial different types of examination questions. We use the data gathered to explore whether the different examination questions measure candidates’ ability fairly and accurately. The test trials will be paper based.
Upcoming test trial sessions
We are always interested in hearing from new schools or language centres to participate in test trials.
Testing is currently offered in:
- Reading comprehension tasks (A1-C2)
- Writing tasks (A2-C2)
- Speaking and listening tasks (A1-C2)
